Not sure why people think trading disappointing players and bloated cap hits is all that is needed to turn the Canucks into an all star contender. Poolman, Penisson, Pearson & Myers would cost to move. They are fringe players on any decent team.

I think pearson would get you something, he had a good season. I agree the others are tough. Myers someone might bite, I mean the Sens paid a 3rd for hamonic....

I'm not sold on Hoglander, and he would get a decent D man perhaps. Just need to clear some space for Boeser if he will sign

Myers could be moved, his last 2 years he has a M-NTC clause.

Throw in a halfling as a sweetener.

What's your opinion of management going to be if they don't make the changes you are demanding?

Long term retirement goals. Or six months there six months here in AZ. I was wrong, it’s only 180K in an investment account for permanent residency. That’s nothing.

———————————————————

“Permanent Residency: Monthly income of c.US$4,300-$4500 over the last 6 months (some consulates request 12 months); or savings balance of c.US$180,000 over the last 12 months.”

Nice! Could be an option but looking at FLA or ARZ. How is real estate in ARZ is it out of reach now?

I've changed my thoughts a bit:

- Keep miller to start the season (see if we can keep it going)
- Sign Boeser to an under QO deal (if not, trade)
- Keep Garlund


For cap help:
- poolman, Richardenson, pearson, myers - if we can trade them. Pearson we could.

For help on D:
- see what hoggy can get you, he's cheap for another year and good secondary scoring for a good team. Someone who has extra D? Get a young solid D-man with a bit of potencial.

Inject that and maybe Rathbone.

Hope that PODZ improves,EP is back for good (he was great at the end of season, forgot how good he could be)

If they suck out of the gate....blow it up....

Trade Miller, maybe Horvat - get at least good 1 young C back and try again.

Looking forward to a couple of tweaks this summer to bolster the current line up. Bringing Boudreau back is key.

Morning!

I have an early blog for you today, as I'm off to the arena soon for the Canucks' players exit meetings.

Lots more to dissect, but I went down a rabbithole comparing this season/offseason to 2005-06 to get us started...

Watching the end of season interview with brock is the reason I don’t crap all over players, you never know what’s going on in the players personal lives, QH and petey looked emotional as well, the core are very close and care about each other.

Absolutely. Good things happening here the group and the room are getting very tight. The team is close. A couple of tweaks in the summer.
